Origin of X-ray Spectral Variation and the Seemingly Broad Iron-Line Spectral Feature in Seyfert Galaxies

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
We present systematic X-ray data analysis of the Seyfert galaxies observed by Suzaku to study origin of their hard X-ray (2 - 40 keV) variations. In particular, we examine if the "Variable Partial Covering (VPC) model" proposed by Miyakawa, Ebisawa and ...

Recent Results from the SAFIR Project

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
The "Seyfert and star formation Activity in the Far-Infrared" (SAFIR) project is aimed at studying the physical nature of the nuclear IR emission and star formation properties of a small sample of nearby Seyfert galaxies observed with the PACS and SPIRE ...

Optical Properties of Two Complementary Samples of Intermediate Seyfert Galaxies

open access: yesPhysics, 2023
We present first results of the analysis of optical spectra of two complementary samples of Seyfert galaxies (Seyferts). The first sample was extracted from a selection of the 4th Fermi Gamma-ray Large Area Telescope (4FGL) catalog and consists of 11 γ ...

The Narrow‐Line Region of Seyfert Galaxies: Narrow‐Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies versus Broad‐Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2001
It is known that the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the nuclear radiation of narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) has different shapes with respect to that of ordinary broad-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (BLS1s), particularly in wavelengths of X-ray.

Unabsorbed Seyfert 2 galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2002
We present a sample of 17 type 2 Seyfert galaxies which have an X-ray column density lower than 10^{22} cm^{-2}. The Compton thin nature of these sources is strongly suggested by isotropic indicators. We estimate the fraction of these sources to be in the range of 10% - 30% of the population of type 2 Seyfert galaxies.

What We Talk about When We Talk about Blazars?

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
After the discovery of powerful relativistic jets from Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies, and the understanding of their similarity with those of blazars, a problem of terminology was born.

The Relative Orientation of Nuclear Accretion and Galaxy Stellar Disks in Seyfert Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We use the difference (delta) between the position angles of the nuclear radio emission and the host galaxy major axis to investigate the distribution of the angle (beta) between the axes of the nuclear accretion disk and the host galaxy disk in Seyfert ...

Large-Scale Environment Properties of Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies at z < 0.4

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
The large-scale environment is believed to affect the evolution and intrinsic properties of galaxies. It offers a new perspective on narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1) which have not been extensively studied in this context before.

The Kiloparsec-scale Influence of the AGN in NGC 1068 with SALT RSS Fabry–Pérot Spectroscopy

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present Fabry–Pérot (FP) imaging and longslit spectroscopy of the nearby Seyfert II galaxy NGC 1068 using the Robert Stobie Spectrograph (RSS) on the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) to observe the impact of the central active galactic nucleus (

The Seyfert Population in the Local Universe

open access: yes, 2003
The magnitude-limited catalog of the Southern Sky Redshift Survey (SSRS2), is used to characterize the properties of galaxies hosting Active Galactic Nuclei.
